We KNOW the effects it would have.
We KNOW it would hurt people.
We KNOW it will most likely be in his budget.

We've already contacted our representatives and the WH.

What good does posting the same info do at this time? The threads just devolve into pro/anti Obama spats and we accomplish nothing.

There is no new eye-opening information about this.

What's the purpose?
